Up until the patch where you could roulette with friends, my commendations were given to whomever was polite in the party. I never commended mutes, no matter how good they were, no matter how fast they got us through the dungeon... I just did not care if a "hello" and "goodbye" was too difficult and tedious for them to muster in response to us. I'm not looking for conversation nor friends when I join dungeons, but I'm not going to commend someone who can't do that tiny courtesy either.
Albeit... once I started running with a friend I learned that she liked commending the tank regardless of how robotic he was because he was under her protection and so in turn she hoped I would commend the DPS so that all of the randoms got at least one commendation. I was skeptical at first because I didn't think they deserved it if they remained quiet and especially not if the tank was friendly but I abided anyways because it was such a sweet and innocent notion, haha.
...for a while anyways. I have returned to my original standards again. I don't really care about skill. I will happily commend a horrible player if they are apologetic about it and communicative.
